A laboratory manual gave precise instructions for carrying out the reaction described by the chemical equation, C2H6O + O2 C2H4O

2 + H2O. It stated that if you bubble oxygen gas through a solution containing the reactant for 24 hours then the yield of C2H4O2 would be 7.50% of the theoretical amount. If you desire to produce 700. grams of the C2H4O2 in a single batch, how many kg of C2H6O should you begin with?

C2H6O + O2 ---> C2H4O2 + H2O

using the molar masses:-
24+ 6 + 16 g of C2H6O  produces 24 + 4 + 32 g C2H4O2    (theoretical)
 46 g produces 60g 

60 g C2H4O2 is produced from 46g C2H6O
1g      .     .................................46/60 g 
 700g     .................................    (46/60) * 700  Theoretically

But as the yield is only 7.5% 

the required amount is    ((46/60) * 700 ) / 0.075 =  7155.56 g 

=  7.156 kg to nearest gram.  Answer

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The final volume is 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial temperature = 200 °C = 473 K

Volume = 0.0250 m³ = 25 L

Pressure = 1.50 *10^6 Pa

The pressure reduce to 0.950 *10^6 Pa

The temperature stays constant at 200 °C

Step 2: Calculate the volume

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 1.50 * 10^6 Pa

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 25 L

⇒with P2 = the final pressure = 0.950 * 10^6 Pa

⇒with V2 = the final volume = TO BE DETERMINED

1.50 *10^6 Pa * 25 L = 0.950 *10^6 Pa * V2

V2 = (1.50*10^6 Pa * 25 L) / 0.950 *10^6 Pa)

V2 = 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³

The final volume is 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³

Calculate the number of chloride ions in 6.8 g of zinc chloride
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.300 * 10^23 ions.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, there is a need to find the number of chloride ions in the mentioned 6.8 grams of zinc chloride compound.  

The moles of zinc chloride (ZnCl2) is,  

= mass of zinc + 2 mass of chlorine

= 65.38 + 2 (35.45)

=65.38 + 70.90

= 136.28 grams (The molecular mass of zinc is 65.38 and the molecular mass of chlorine is 35.45)

Thus, 136.28 g of ZnCl2 contains 70.90 grams of chlorine

Therefore, 6.8 grams of ZnCl2 will comprise = (70.90/136.28) * 6.8

= 3.537 g of chlorine

70.90 g of Cl comprise 6.022*10^23 chlorine, thus, 3.537 g of Cl will comprise (6.022*10^23/70.90) * 3.537

= 0.300 * 10^23 ions of chlorine.

If 3.18 x 10^23 atoms of iron react with 67.2 L of chlorine gas at STP, what is the maximum
spin [16.1K]

84.34 grams of grams of iron (III) chloride that can be produced is maximum because Fe is the limiting reagent in this reaction and chlorine gas is excess reagent.

Explanation:

Balanced chemical equation:

2 Fe + 3 Cl2 → 2 FeCl3​

DATA GIVEN:

iron =  atoms

mass of chlorine gas = 67.2 liters

mass of FeCl3 = ?

number of moles of iron will be calculated as

number of moles = \frac{total number of atoms}{Avagaro's number}

number of moles = \frac{3.18 x 10^23}{6.022x 10^23}

number of moles = 0.52 moles of iron

moles of chlorine gas

number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass of 1 mole}

Putting the values in the equation:

n = \frac{67200}{70.96}               (atomic mass of chlorine gas = 70.96 grams/mole)

   = 947.01 moles

Fe is the limiting reagent so

2 moles of Fe gives 2 moles of FeCl3

0.52 moles of Fe will give

\frac{2}{2} = \frac{x}{0.52}

0.52 moles of FeCl3 is formed.

to convert it into grams:

mass = n X atomic mass

         = 0.52 x 162.2                   (atomic mass of FeCl3 is 162.2grams/mole)  

<h3>           = 84.34 grams         </h3>

A solution contains 10.0 g pentane, C5H12, 20.0 g hexane, C6H14, and 10.0 g benzene, C6H6. What is the mole fraction of hexane?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

b) 0.47

Explanation:

MwC5H12 = 72.15g/mol

⇒mol C5H12 = (10.0)*(mol/72.15)=0.1386molC5H12

MwC6H14=86.18g/mol

⇒molC6H14=(20.0)*(mol/86.18)=0,232

MwC6H6=78.11g/mol

⇒molC6H6=(10.0)*(mol/78.11)=0.128molC6H6

<h3>XC6H14=(0.232)/(0.1386+0.232+0,128)=0.465≅0.47</h3>
